Made by Eugene Jarvis’ company, Raw Thrills.

They also made

it’s weak that the largest pacman has a normal sized controller because there’s another huge Pacman arcade controlled with a joystick that’s as tall as an eight year old and the candy ball is bigger than your head. all I can find is some shitty plug and play version online, but I played it at Disneyworld in space quest!!! and again at california extreme!! it felt GREAT to use and all these plug and play sticks have reviews that they feel like shit.

yeah…what is that version with the big stick called?

There is one at our local freeplay arcade, or at least there was 3? 4? 5? years ago or whenever the last time I went. They also had a Pacman Battle Royale tabletop. Solid pac catalog.

I couldn’t find anything on the arcade giant Pac-Man joystick, unfortunately (just the Arcade1UP one which I take it is one of the crappy plug-n-play ones), but I guess I found giant joystick Tetris:

Their giant games catalog (for rental, I think?)

also has the Pac-Man Battle Royale

Giant pacman

alongside such classics as the Largest Pac-Man game, Giant Galaga, Giant Space Invaders, Giant Holographic Slot Machine, Giant Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, Giant Human Whack-A-Mole, Giant Cornhole, and Giant Inflatable Cornhole

giant tetris runs on naomi and can thus be emulated, and it’s a pretty fun variant even without the giant stick gimmick

HIRE THIS MAN

Between this and that Portal ripoff where the gun talks to you I guess games are starting to decide that it’s not enough to just have people barking in your ear anymore, your companion has to be right in your field of view.

Adding ā€œplease don’t ever let me write dialogue as bad as the stuff from the Rick and Morty gun gameā€ to my bedtime prayer, holy shit

Do you think it’s possible to lose at that game and if so do all these fucking quips replay every time
